Girls, BBQ, and Swimming

What do they all have in common? They were all part of this past weekend. My Saturday was filled doing this, but Saturday night I went out with my girlfriends to celebrate a birthday, which ended the day on a very relaxing note. We enjoyed a great dinner with lots of gossip and a couple bottles of wine. I am so blessed to have such a great group of girlfriends!

Sunday is family day and this one consisted of lots of driving around. At least Zoe didn't mind since she got to hang out in her new car seat. Doesn't she look so big? My how time flies by.

We drove around so much because Dave was trying to decide on this...

Where I make decisions and consider it done, my hubby is the opposite and has a hard time making decisions. Then again his purchases tend to be a bit pricier than mine!! He had some birthday money and has been wanting a new grill so for the past few weeks he has went to the same stores, looked at the same grills, and still failed to make a decision. However, on Sunday it finally came home with us. Dave is now a very happy man and I am happy a happy woman because he has been cooking yummy dinners like...

Once we got the grill home, I took the kids to swimming lessons while Dave put his toy together and got to working on dinner. I am amazed at how well both of the kids are doing with swimming lessons. Dylan has all the strokes down and does them pretty well. He is working more on endurance now! Zoe is beginning her strokes now that she can keep her head out of the water. She wasn't quite cooperating when it came time to swim without her floaty so I will try again next week cause she is hilarious as she tries to put her head in the water, move her arms, and kick. She looks like a little motor boat because she tries to go so fast!! Anyways here is what I got from this week's lesson.
